I love hearing about fashion icons that inspire forum members and I often have a hard time envisioning how I would incorporate elements of the icons style into my own. This led to an idea to have a challenge where we try to emulate the look of different icons in our own way. I'm going to give a list of 7 icons, and I'll include a picture here of each.

Throughout the next week or two, I invite you to put together outfits inspired by these icons and share them with the forum. Feel free to try one or all on your own time frame. I actually realized today that I'm going to be out of town for 10 days starting next Tuesday, so my own participation may be spotty. I should have thought ahead.

Drumroll...the icons are....

1. Emmanuelle Alt
2. Iris Apfel
3. Ines de la Fressange
4. Gwen Stefani
5. Anna Wintour
6. our very own Angie Cox
7. Kate Middleton

Obviously, all of these ladies have different facets to their style that cannot be captured completely in one snapshot. Whether you choose to recreate a particular outfit or embody their essence in your fashion choices for the day, there's no right or wrong here.
